So far it is bits and pieces and a couple of design concepts

I was invited to install a small 4x8 garden space at the 2012 San Francisco Garden show that will be open to the public in late March at the San Mateo Event Center.

At this time I am exploring a variety of design concepts , doing cost analysis studies , gathering found objects and puttering in the studio and greenhouse.

I’ve narrowed it down to 2 options and I’’m leaning toward # 2 because it has a simple overhead arbor and judging from past shows, the lighting is lacking in design so I will need to design my own lighting system.

Horticulturally I will be emphasizing Bromeliads adaptable for the Bay Area, succulents and orchids.A small vertical window of bromeliads , orchids and perhaps a nepenthe will be set into the back wall.
